THE ADHERENCE.

The Hartford Times prints the following to show how unfortunate the working people in England are:
 'To give a little idea of the cruel disparity of material conditions be- tween the idle and orking classes of England this condensation of 8 paragraph, from speech made in London, will be sufficient:
 ''Ihe ceiling of one room in the mansion of the Duke of Westmins- ter cost tl1, ,00O; some of the chairs cost 90 guincas The dukes income is flj, ,00O | week. Shoemakers work fourteen hours day, making shoes: their own shoes let water in at one end and out at the other. Through all the ages the poor have built palaces for dukes, novels for themselves. The dukes dogs and horses are better fed than any man who built the palace. The queen s income is fl 400 a day.
 "There can be but one opinion as to the justice of this state of affairs The differences between the pittances of the laboring poor and the 3D. 0O0 q week of d idle duke, and sf. .00O a day for q mere tigure-head to the state, is too enormously un- just to admit of it's future perma- nency. The very nature of so great q wrong sounds it's own death-knell. '"
 The Times need not go to England for examples of this kind. "Ffee" America furnishes sufficient proof of the robbery of the working classes by the idle, with the conniyance of the "State." "

SOCIAL POLITICAL NOTES.

The Labor Party of Chicago is in the field with full municipal ticket. Mayor Harrison ("democratic') says that the Labor Ticket means the election of Il republican" mayor this Spring. The Chicago huiqhs of Labof replies that that will all de- pend upon the democrats, and probably as much upon Mr. Harri- son as any one. The Labor Party is going to run a straight ticket on principles, and as the democrats have no principles to fight for it lies with them whether they will assist the republican" party or make sure the election of the Labor can didate by indorsing him.
 It is reported that the Nihililists attempted to kill the Car on Sun day, it being the seventh anniver- sary of the killing of his father by u bomb. They failed only on mis- calculation of the time at which the bomb should be exploded. The Car no doubt considers himself martyr in the cause of Cxardom. He has q hard row to hoe.
 Thirty-slx persons were killed in the breaking of the bridge on the Boston and Providence railroad, last Monday morning~-many of them ladies and about hundred others were injured. The exigencies of private corporation railroading de- mand large dividends, and as these are incompatible with good wages and careful management, the people run the risk of being sacrificed on the altar of dividends.
 Mayor Hewitt, of New York, "democrat' and ''sav.or of society,"" a certain democratic" reformer named BayIes as president of the Health Board. He didn't know that Bayles had at one time belonged to the Knights of Labor; so when he read the papers 8 day or two after he had cat-ft, if the funny man of a New York paper may be believed. Bayles says he is not member of the Knights, and only joined to find out what the thing was like, in order to write a book about it. This explanation no doubt will prevent Hewitt's frail corpus from protracted horizontali- zation.

NATIVE ARISTOCRACN.

The carriage of an aristocrat obstructed the cross walk at the corner of Church and Chapel streets the other day for sev- eral minutes. \ crowd of pedestrians were compelled to wait while the whole family alighted, and a guardian of the law looked complaeently on, raising his hat in seryile submission to his patrons. The gutter is not good enough for the carriages of the elte of our good city. We would suggest that they drive up on the side walk, or stretch a plush uphol- stered bridge from the door of the car riage to the step of the shop, and leave it there until they complete their pur- chases. Our citizens would then learn how to climb.

Taking Sides With Railroad Corpora
 tion--jIeeIcrism Apparent.

The iiousalonlc Railroad company seems to have considerable influence with the Knights of Labor of this city, or to speak more correctly. with the District Assembly. We say Sep04s be- cause it is hardly probable that the in- telligent rank and file of the Knights are interested n contest between two cap italistc monopolies. The District As semDly, No. IA, then. advocates the sale of the peoples interest in the Derby rail road to q corporation. notwithstanding the fact that Section XVIII of the plat form of the order says:
 That the government shall ain possession by purchase, under the right of eminent do nam of all tclegraphs telephones and rail roads; and that hereafter no charter or license be issued to any eorporati II for construction or operation of any means of transporting in. tethgenet, passengers or freight"
 Not only is it runored that the Dis trict Assembly is itself opposing the above plank in the K. of l.. platform, but it actually goes to the trouble of publish ing it's ridiculous and scandalous advice under the special supervision of com mittee of the District Now, if the cen tral body of the Knights in New Haven persists in this course, it is no donbt sub ject to suspension by the General As sembly or its agents in aCcordauce with law, unless these in their turn are cor rupt and sail under fase colors.
 The New Haven Knights as body are not corrupt, and should see to it that tine men thpy pIprt to rpprasapt thpn in the interest of any railroad corporation. The whole proceeding savors much of "democratic' heeleri,m, and should not be tolerated by honest Knights of Labor.

For two hours was this tor tnre endured. when he was lowered sufficiently to barely touch the deck with his toes. Soon after he fainted, and when he came to, found himself in irons below.

 ing the next harbor he had a chance to escape, and was not slow to i'm prove the opportunity. After vari- ous yicissitudes he reached New York, where he watches with eager eyes the shipping news for tidings of the vessel with its brutal com mander and mate,

C. M. WIS REPORT.
IMPUDENT CRITICS SHOULD
 BE EXPELLED.
Fault. Finders Anarchists Money Squandered The Result of COnfiding Too Much in
 the Capitalist Press.
 Timely Hint.

As usual the labor press has to rely upon the capitalistc press for information as to the doings of a "secret" labor organization. not withstanding frequent suggestions to the interested parties to furnish re- liable and correct news to the labor papers first. The following pur- ports to be the refutation of alleged strictures made by labor papers on the doings of the General Executive Board of the Noble Order of Knights of Labor, in the matter of the pur- chase of the new headquarters for the Board in Philadelphia, d beautl- full house which was bought after due consideration for $45,oo0, and is said by the Board to be worth so0,- GOO. Mr. Powderly according to a New York capitalstc sheet, says:
 ''The charge made that 'the Gen. eral Executive Board has squandered the funds of the order in a reckless purchase ofa palace among capitalists and nabobs, etc., is silly when it appears in paper published in the interest of capital; but when a labor plays parrot and picks up such cry and repeats it before ascertaining whether it is true or false it becomes criminal.
 "Those who find the most fault with us are men of Anarchistic ten dencies. They are constantly assert ing that the palaces of the rich belong to the poor, and when the poor step in where capital goes out they still keep up their whine and attempt to stir mp discord. Nothing crates so much distrust in work ingman's society as to charge that the funds have be misappropriated or squandered; and it was with the intention of creating dissension that the howl went up against the pur- chase of the headquarters. We were ordered to do it, and It was we'll done--it was honestly done. l ask where an editor of a paper who has published an attack on the General Executive Board for the purchase of the. headquarters, belong to the order he be allowed to appoint an investi- gating committee to examine the Philadelphia property, ,and if he finds that l have made misstatement he need not retract what he has pub llshed; If he finds that he was wrong he must retract or be expelled from the order. The assemblies to which these men belong should act prompt ly in the matter.
 If the publication of these critl- cisms and refutations will open the eyes of the Executive Board and sug gest to them the propriety of making the labor press acquainted with the real facts instead of trusting to the capitalist press, it will have accom- plished g good purpose.

Moreover, he was an expert judge of human nature. He who cannot be honest from principle, should be honest from motives polite. It can be depended upon to pay the largest dividend in the long run.
